Late Night Fright

(TW:self harm)

I put my hair in a messy bun and place a bucket hat on my head. I hear a knock at the door. I look back and see Mami. "Are you alright? You came home pretty late." "I'm fine. I was practicing." I lie. "Next time text us and let us know so we won't worry. There's a dangerous man on the loose." "I know Mami. Lo siento. I'm sorry." She hugs me.

My phone buzzes. "Ian's here. Gotta go love you." "We're having dinner tonight with Archie please join us." "I will." I say as I walk out the door.

"Hey what happened last night?" I ask. "You promised you'd be there." "I was with Moose." He states. "Visiting hours end at 8. What were you doing? You know how much this meant to me." "Can you stop bitching for Ken second?" I scoff.

"Oh i wanna introduce my boyfriend to my dad and now I'm a bitch? No fuck you." I feels sharp pain in my face.

He slapped me. He just slapped me. I look at him in shock. He has the pissed look. "Vi..." I get out the car. "VI!" He filled after me. "VIOLETTA!"

"Get away from me!" I say as he grabs my wrist. "Vi get back in the car. I'm not gonna tell you again. You little-" "is there a problem here?" I look behind me and see Cheryl.

He looks at the red head as she smiles. "No." "Coach Clayton is looks for you." She states. He looks at me. "Vi-" I back away. He sighs and walks away glaring at her.

"Let me see." She asks. I look at her. She holds her hand out. I take it. She takes me to the bathroom.

I sit on a the sink as she places makeup on it because she's taller than me. "You don't have to do this." "I know." She stops. "Finished." She states. "He shouldn't touch you like that." "I know." I state.

"And you're still gonna go back to him." "I can't leave him. Besides it was one time." I state. She looks at me with a pitiful expression.

"I should head to Geo."

I gotta text from Jughead asking me to come help him unbox his new office. That's a perfect distraction.

I get to the room and knock on the door. "Damn this place is dusty as hell." I walk inside. I turn my head and see a girl with pink hair. My mouth parts.

Please don't be good-looking! Please don't be good-looking! Pleeaaase don't be good looking!

She turns to me. Oh no she's hot! "Toni Topaz meet Violetta Lodge." "Nice to meet you. He talks about you a lot. Clearly he left out some important details." She says shaking my hand and looking I'm up and down. I swallow a lump in my throat.

Oh god. Why's my heart racing? My palms are sweaty. If Aphrodite was a person it'd be here.

OH MY GOD STOP!

"Wait you were talking about me?" He pulls me to the side. "I just had a thought if and only if you and that brainless drone broke up you could move on to better people." He states. My eyes wide. "I'm not gay!" I whisper shout. He rises an eyebrow. "Favorite movie?" "Jennifer's Body." I state. "What?" I ask as he looks at me with a smile. "Okay..." "Jughead what?" "I said okay." He shrugs.

"No you said Okay..." I shrug my shoulders. "That's two different Okays." "Does it matter you said you're not gay so you're not gay." He states. "Stop doing that." "Doing what?" "That voice! You're 'well see' voice." I state.
"I do not have a voice." "Okay..." he gives me a look.

The door opens and I see 4 guys walk in. The middle one is as tall as Ian. "Topaz. Let's bounce." He states. He looks at Jughead.

"Jones you wanna come with? We're going to the quarry. You can bring your friend." He states.

"Uh I don't have my beach bod yet." "Understatement of the year. I'm surprised you're not fat." He glances at me and glares. "My bad. And I can't swim." I state. "No problem Topaz can teach you." "Why does everyone think I'm gay?" I whisper to myself. "Have you seen the way you dress?" I look up at Jughead.

"What you'll ask for help from the Serpents when you need it but you won't hang us? Don't come crawling to us hat in hand when down Ghoulies decides to war his stripes by taking out FP Jones's kid." My eyes widen

Wait they're Serpents. She's a Serpent. I'm getting drugs drugs from my best friends fathers gang's rival?

My mouth drops. "Ooh tension. I- I'm gonna head out. I gotta thing at home." I state. "You don't have to-" Toni starts. "I think I should." I walk out the door.

Oh fuck oh shit. "FUCK!" I shout. I place around behind a building. Ohhh I'm fucked. I'm so fucking fucked! I start breathing heavily and put my hand on the wall.

'They're gonna find out.'

'They're gonna hate me.'

'No. No. No. No.'

I see black dots in my vision and pass out.

When I wake up I'm still in the alley. I almost notice it's dark. I check the time and see a bunch of texts from my mom dad and Veronica even one from Archie.

I look at the time. '10:53' "Oh fuck!" I get up to my feet and start running homing.

I get home and shut the door. "Where were you?" Mami asks. "With Jughead." "No I called Jughead and he said you went home. 5 hours ago." Veronica says pissed. Dang I asleep for that long?

"Now you're lying?" Mami says upset. "Violetta we were worried why didn't you answer your phone?" Papi asks calmed but also mad.

"I had my ringer off. Sorry it won't happen." I say trying to go to my room. "Don't walk away from us young lady. Where were you?" She asks. "Playing ball in the park." "Don't give me that excuse we checked you weren't there." She states.

"What! What do you want me to say that I- I was getting mugged by some gangster or or- doing ecstacy behind a grocery store, getting my back blown out in a fucking alleyway?" I say frustrated. "Okay I forgot to turn my phone on. I'm sorry. I didn't check in. I'm sorry. God...can I just go? Please?" They looks at me with irrated faces. "This conversation isn't over young lady." "It is for me." I say walking into my room.

Once I shut the door the tears fall from my eyes. But I stop them and take a deep breath. I look at the mat on my bathroom floor through the cracked door. I walk over to it and bend down. I lift up the mat and take out the blade. I take out a lighter and burn it. I wait for it to cool down and pull my shorts down. I put the blade to my skin and watch as the blood drips from it.

I let our shaky breathes as I do this. I drop it as I start crying. I put my palms on my head and sob softly.

What is wrong with me?
